I Caved..And some Old pics I found

So if anyone else peruses the internet for beauty related crap there's no doubt in my mind you would've seen mac's Cyber about. I steered off buying this for ages, I don't why - I think I just thought there would be something better out there, something more 'me' but last week I caved and bought it. Oops :P



I love the simplistic chic of mac packaging so much.







 Saahhh prettyyyyy




Oh and just randomly, I found these when I was cleaning out my downloads folder and didn't remember ever uploading them so I thought, what the hey?


 Sydney Black Milk Event 2013


And I think this is 2012 BM birthday/Christmas party featuring lovely Alex. As you can see we were excited about our matching BM Cthulhu items and matching Cthulhu phone cases ^_^ AC has a blog you can check out here. Dunno what's going on with my make up in this photo - Goths in hot fucking weather, amirite? :P


Anyway, that was all for tonight. I'm hoping to convince my chums to go out to dinner or something on monday and if I'm successful I will endevour to take my SLR and get some proper photos. Unfortunately my friends aren't lovers of the lens like myself :P

10 Songs I Just Can't Get Out of My Head

 I feel as though over the past 12 months especially my musically tastes have branched out quite a lot - not to say they weren't always a bit eclectic but still..In any case I thought I'd share some of the tunes that have been known to get caught in between my ears and really cement themselves into my grey matter over that period.

Some are old loves that have been rekindled and others are brand new and from genres I never saw myself being into. Hopefully there's something here you haven't heard before and/or like the sound of too. Enjoy!


'Vessel' - Zola Jesus




'Funnel of Love' - SQURL feat. Madeline Follin




'Haunted' - Maya Kern




'Hooked on a Feeling' - Blue Swede (I think we all know)




'Guren No Yumiya' - Linked Horizon (i.e. the theme to Attack on Titan)




'Again' - Yui (i.e. the theme to the first season of FMA:B)





'I'm Not in Love' - 10cc (i.e. the title track of my childhood)

 

'And the Waltz Goes On' - Composed by Sir Anthony Hopkins and performed by Andre Rieu




'Soul Dance' - Show Luo




'An End Once and For All' - Sam Hulick (ME3)






Thats all for now and thanks for reading!

*SPOILERS* My Very First Loot Crate! *SPOILERS* Also pic heavy

*SPOILERS* Ladies and gents if you haven't received this months Loot Crate yet and want it to be a surprise then don't read on!















I'm freakin' serious, this is your last warning! :P
















Okay now that you're sure you want to be here let's get into it. This month's theme was 'galactic' and promised things from various associated fandoms including Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly and Alien (all of which I adore) so this seemed the perfect first time crate for me. Here's what my box contained:


 It's here - eeeeeee!


 Love the box detailing



 Cute badge!


Pop rocks in the best colour ;) I have a friend constantly going on about these so this is exciting.


 Firefly figure (I got distracted and forgot to take a photo of him, I'll add it later but in any case the figure is Mal :P )


 Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! So cool!


 Magnet! My fridge is going to be infinitely more awesome now.


 Carbonite Han fuck yeahhhhh!


The trouble with Tribbles...


The container detailing is just perfection - keep out of reach of Klingons hahaha


 *purrs*


 So...not even before midnight? :P What if I want more than one Tribble?



Plus there was some links to online comics etc that I haven't had a chance to look at yet but this was the main meat of it. Overall I'm thrilled with this box! I certainly hope upcoming ones are as fulfilling. Thank you, Lootcrate!

That's all for now!

Black Milk: Pulp Horror

Those that have been following me for a while would know that I'm a certified Black Milk freak. I've been following this Australian success story pretty much since their origins when James Lillis was busy sewing my purchases on his dining room table. Nowadays however, buying from BM is a whole other story and they turn out products in new releases pretty much every month; but none as exciting to me and I'm sure all the other darklings out there, than the Halloween release.

These Nylon fiends grow almost exponentially with every passing year and more success equals a bigger budget and I just love how much effort their creative teams go to in preparation for big releases such as things like Halloween. This year certainly has got to be one of, if not the most impressive of all that preceded it in regards to promotional marketing.

Here are some of the promo pics for Pulp Horror - photos courtesy of Black Milk Clothing.


'Frankenhottie'

I freakin' love this photo! The hues, the clothes, the animated expressions of the models; it's amazing and all very reminiscent of fantastic old pulp horror movies, as the name would suggest. They even sneaked in some Rick Baker style make-up there mmm mmmmmm; I do love me some Rick Baker inspo.


'Dracula Sucks'

'Dat beehive though, aww yeahh. Plus I'm loving how goth some of these pieces are in this collection including the above picture Fatale PVC dress.


'Are You My Mummy?'
 
Who doesn't love a good Doctor Who reference in the morning? Or...y'know...Any time, really.



Of this collection I'd say the stand out for me however is pretty goddamned obvious...


 The Cthulhu inside-out dress in all it's mesmerising perfection...



On the other side is a purple haunted house scene which is also quite striking


...Doesn't really compare to the Cthulhu side though, does it? :P (No...It doesn't)


The Cthulhu print Black Milk use is pretty much my favourite of theirs so naturally I'm sacrificing small children at my alter to the Old Gods in hopes it will increase by chances of scoring one (it's limited edition like all of Black Milk's IODs) ...Not that the Old Gods worry themselves with the trivialities of humans but y'know, not much to lose here baha.

I was fortunate enough to receive a voucher for BM for my birthday a few weeks back and you can be sure it'll be going towards this collection.


Quickly, some other stand outs from Pulp Horror:




 Oh you just know I'm going as bride of Frankenstein to any Halloween parties I attend this year. Time to bust out the big hair and the bolts, baby!




Ever wanted to feel like you're 100ft tall? Like you want to fight giant alien monsters for a living? Have you ever felt like cancelling the apocalypse? Well, my friend may want to join me in Kaijuu-groupies Anonymous and get yourself a pair of these Jaeger-esque Mecha leggings. They also come in pink but that's really none of my business.


And my little gothlings, your attention please.






I don't want to give it too much of a build up in case it's not your thing or whatever, and it's certainly not something I can pull off but by Cthulhu it's adorable...










Yeah...I love it. Too bad about it being a crop but I like that they did something so off centre with Nosferatu.



Anyway, I'm sure you're all sick of me for now so I'll be signing off. Seeing as I'm trying to make regular posting a thing agaiin here, lemme know what kinda stuff you like to see.


Over and out,

Long Time, No See

*Footsteps echo in the silence* Hem, hello?

I realised that it's been almost a year since I posted on my blog. See, normal people would just start a new one but me...I'm lazy :P Is anyone even still watching this space?

I still don't have my own internet really but I have access occasionally that I may be able to use so I thought this might be a good idea to help me connect back with the world.

So...Let's just hope I actually follow through :P
